Historical, intriguing and magical. This unearthed treasure in Chimayo. Imagine families pouring dirt and water into small wood frames to create an adobe (mud block). Mixing in straw to the mud of the adobe blocks to create strong durable walls. A century ago, the families would build with double adobe walls, creating a stronghold for their families. Adobe block. No chemicals. Only the earth’s ingredients itself. Next, as many families in this small community would do, they would either go to the nearby Carson National Forest and collect the lumber that would be cut into flooring or placed above ceilings in rafters known as vigas. A horse ride to nearby Santa Fe to collect glass for doors and windows and steel roofing. Now, a home build not to last one century, but many centuries! So solid inside the home, you would feel like you're in paradise. This adobe home, built in the 1900's by the local Trujillo family, well-known weavers and carvers.
